SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Browse, search, and display metric definitions from the active dataset's metric dictionary. This skill provides quick access to how metrics are defined, computed, and validated.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • List metrics for the active dataset with category, owner, and validation status
  • Show full definitions for a specific metric, including formula, unit, source tables, and guardrails
  • Filter metrics by category, search term, or recent usage to surface relevant metrics for a given analysis
  • Proactively suggest metric definitions when the dictionary is empty or when users reference an undefined metric, using the dataset schema and recent analyses as guidance

Quick Start

Ask Claude to list all metrics using /metrics, or request a specific metric with /metrics {id} to view its full definition.

FAQPage Schema
How do I list all metric definitions for my active dataset?

To list metric definitions for your active dataset, request a metrics overview to display all available metrics with their categories, owners, and validation statuses. You can then filter these metric definitions by category or search term to find specific data analytics calculations.

What is a metric dictionary and when do I need to validate dataset metrics?

A metric dictionary stores definitions, formulas, units, and source tables for dataset metrics. You need to validate dataset metrics when analyzing data analytics outputs to ensure calculations follow defined guardrails and reference the correct source tables.

How do I view the formula and guardrails for a specific metric definition?

To view the formula and guardrails for a specific metric definition, request the metric by its identifier. This surfaces the full metric specification including its formula, unit, category, source tables, and validation status from the dataset dictionary.

Can I get metric definitions suggested automatically when the dictionary is empty?

Yes, when the metric dictionary is empty or you reference an undefined metric, suggested metric definitions are generated automatically using the dataset schema and recent analyses as guidance to propose relevant formulas and categories.

How do I filter metrics by category to find relevant definitions for my analysis?

To filter metrics by category, request a category-specific listing from the active dataset's metric dictionary. This surfaces relevant metric definitions, formulas, and validation statuses grouped by their assigned categories for your data analytics workflow.

What happens if I reference an undefined metric that lacks a schema definition?

If you reference an undefined metric lacking a schema definition, the system proactively suggests a metric definition based on the active dataset schema and recent analyses, allowing you to inspect proposed formulas, units, and guardrails.
